Jonathan Devaux

An exceptional set of 9 limited-edition volumes from the prestigious "Le Sage et ses Amis" collection, published by Madame Lesage in Paris during the mid-1920s. These volumes represent the height of interwar French bibliophile publishing.

• Rarity: This set includes highly desirable copies from the limited run of 75 gedenumbered I to LXXV. These were printed on premium "Roma jaune paille" (straw-yellow Roma) handmade paper, reserved specifically for Édouard Champion and the Société des Médecins Bibliophiles.

• Included Titles: Features notable works such as Une visite à la Béchellerie by Princesse Bibesco and Le Nouvel Amour by Eugène Marsan, among others.

• Format: Small 8vo, original paper covers with flaps (broché, couverture rempliée).

• Condition: Authentic condition showing typical aging. Some wear and minor tearing to the fragile paper spines, consistent with age. Internals remain clean on high-quality paper.

• Numbering: Example shown is No. XLV, highlighting its exclusivity within the first 75 copies.

Ca. 750 pages in total.

A rare opportunity for collectors of French literature and 20th-century fine press editions.
